FC: BABY'S FIRST YEAR

1: REMEMBERING THE JOURNY AND JOYFUL EXPERIENCES OF THE BIRTH & LIFE OF MY BABY _______________ | DATE_______

4: FIRST PEEK | 20 WEEKS 5 DAYS | HOORAY! IT'S A BOY! | 16 WEEKS 4 DAYS | When I saw my first ultra-sound picture of you, it looked like a peanut. From then on, I called you Baby Peanut. Your Uncle Travis cleverly changed that nick name after I found out I was having a boy and called you Baby Penis.

5: 5 MONTHS | 28 WEEKS 5 DAYS | I loved the 3-D ultra-sounds. They made me so excited to see you.

6: BABY SHOWER | MARCH 27, 2011 | The cake was a delicious ice cream cake. | Buckets filled with peanuts, peanut m&m's, and suckers were the centerpieces and also the prizes for the games. | Decorations were made by my Aunt Katie and cousins Elsie, Josie, Kelly, and Noah. | The baby shower was on March 27, 2011 at 2 p.m. It started with a game that you had to name the mom and baby of an animal (chicken would be hen and chick). Then, we played "guess what's in the diaper bag." We took a break next, and guests got snacks and also guessed how many peanuts were in a jar. Opening gifts came next, and Ava helped me out. Throughout the shower, people decorated bibs, onsies, and socks.

7: My sisters Rachel and Carmen, and my Aunt Katie put on the shower for me. The theme was peanuts and elephants because I always called you Baby Peanut. | Guests enjoying food, chatting, and decorating onsies, bibs, or socks. | Diaper cake made of diapers and baby goodies by Aunt Katie. | Food Pretzel Mix Chips and Salsa Peanut Butter Cup Cookies

14: YOUR BIRTH STORY | CHOOSING YOUR NAME | I had a really hard time deciding on a name. I printed off a list of my top names and took it with me to the hospital. After you were born, I would say a name out loud and then look at your face to see if it fit you. Throughout the whole pregnancy my favorite names all began with "B" so I thought you would end up with a name that started with a "B:". When I said Greysen James Ayala and looked at your adorable face, I knew it was the name for you. | MEASUREMENTS | BIRTH DATE May 7, 2011 | BIRTH TIME 10:07 a.m | POUNDS 7 | OUNCES 5 | INCHES 20

15: FOOT PRINTS

16: Abuelo's and Aunt Rachel's first time holding you.

17: FIRST PHOTOGRAPHS WITH FAMILY | The first time Eden met you, we told her to touch the baby. She ended up poking you in the head right by your soft spot. We all gasped, and from then on she was scared to touch you. | Your older cousins Ava and Beckett were excited to hold you. Ava was always asking and would have held you all day. | Uncle Travis was nervous to hold you but he did it anyway.

20: Bath Time! | DATE__________

22: off in dreamland | you smiled all the time in your sleep.

23: you could sleep anywhere and everywhere. and slept through everything - just like your mom!

25: You always had so many facial expressions. My favorite of them all was your smile.. It lit up your whole face. and always made me smile, too!
